Banner War is coming! I know, with the holidays, it seems so far away, but Banner War will be upon us in only 5 months. Plenty of time to make yourself a banner to hang. As Galandor's Sovereign of Arms, I am holding a competition. It's called Banner War for a reason.

The rules are simple- each household (Galandor and Vegan) is eligible for competition, as long as they display a house banner. I will then count up how many personal banners that house displays, and figure out the percentage of banners per actual house members. Remember that the grace period will still be in effect, so anyone who was a house member in 2008-2009 will count. These need to be banners large enough to be seen from a distance- not rope pennants. Also, I'm not accepting paper, so don't even think about it. (Have some pride.) Multiples of the same device still count as only one. Any disputes will be resolved by the Queen Fleur of Arms (me).

The prize will be not only bragging rights for the entire year, but also cobbler.

I believe it's houses only, because house members overlap with Orders and Guilds. I suppose that if all members of the Order or Guild decided to compete as one and not part of their individual houses that might be ok. I'll run it past Lorelei and find out for sure.
